Estrogen and progesterone are the female hormones produced by the ovaries. These hormones cause monthly menstrual cycles to occur. These hormones also help eggs to develop in follicles, which are fluid-filled pockets, before an egg is released each month to travel down the fallopian tube. A third hormone, testosterone, also is produced by the ovaries in small amounts. Testosterone is in a broad class of hormones called androgens, and it is the dominant sex hormone in men. Between 4% and 7% of women produce too much testosterone in their ovaries.
The ovaries are the female gonads. They are responsible for the production of the egg as well as the female steroid hormones, estrogen and progesterone. Estrogen helps control and guide female sexual development, including the development of female secondary sex characteristics.he testes are the organs that produce sperm, which is the male reproductive cell. The testes also produce steroid hormones, much like we see from their female counterpart, the ovaries. The male sex hormones are collectively referred to as androgens.
